Nutrition That Stacks Up

Protein

Rice and rice bran contain protein of high biological value, meaning good availability of amino acids for absorption. Combined with nutritious soybean meal they provide essential amino acids such as lysine which is vital for building muscle, and methionine which helps support hoof integrity.

Carbohydrate

Rice is gluten free and one of the best sources of digestible starch of all cereal grains, providing an energy source for maintenance, exercise or building condition. Rice based feeds are safer to feed with less risk of digestive upsets, for rice is almost entirely digested in the small intestine, rather than fermented in the hindgut.

Rice Bran Oil

Sourced exclusively from Australia, CopRice rice bran oil is full of goodness including natural antioxidants gamma oryzanol and tocopherols, and Omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids. It is a beneficial energy source that conserves glycogen stores during exercise to delay fatigue and improve stamina, and is great for building topline and muscle definition.

Linseed

Linseed also known as flaxseed, is rich in omega 3 fatty acids. It is also a source of high quality protein, vitamins and minerals. Linseed oil can help improve body condition, joint and ligament health, and may assist in reducing skin allergies and inflammatory conditions such as arthritis.

Yeast Culture

Yeast culture aids fibre digestion and helps improve the absorption of nutrients in particular the macro-minerals calcium and phosphorous. It also assists in re-building the hindgut’s beneficial microflora. A healthy hindgut aids a range of digestive issues including poor appetite, intestinal tract damage and in extreme cases enterocolitis.

Macro-Nutrients

Calcium and phosphorus are essential for skeletal development, the maintenance of bones and teeth, and for enzyme regulation and energy production. Electrolytes including salt, potassium and magnesium, have an important role in balancing body fluids, aiding muscle contraction and maintaining nervous system health.

Micro-Nutrients

Micro-nutrients help to activate and mobilise vitamins, minerals, amino and fatty acids, transporting them around the body. Fat soluble vitamins A, D3 and E can benefit calcium absorption and wound healing. Water soluble B vitamins are vital for metabolism and energy production.

Antioxidants

Rice bran oil is naturally rich in antioxidants gamma oryzanol and tocopherols, which help protect cells against oxidative damage. They also strengthen the immune system, may improve reproduction function and may assist with the recovery of muscular problems such as ‘tying up’.

Daily Feeding Guide

Suggested Feeding Rate (Kg/Day)

Body weight (KG)	Maintenance	Light exercise	Moderate Exercise
300	0.1 – 0.25kg	0.25 – 0.5kg	1.0 – 1.5kg
400	0.25 – 0.5kg	0.5 – 1.0kg	1.5 – 2.0kg
500	0.5 – 1.0kg	1.0 – 1.5kg	2.0 – 2.5kg
600	1.0 – 1.5kg	1.5 – 2.0kg	2.5 – 3.0kg

Feeding guide

Feed a minimum of 1% of your horse’s body weight daily with high quality roughage such as hay, pasture and/or chaff.
Total daily feed intake should be 2-3% of body weight, depending on age, workload and climate.
If feeding over 0.5% body weight per day of pellets, divide into two smaller feeds.
Ensure horses always have access to clean, cool and fresh water.

Suggested feeding rates to be used as a guide only. The amount of feed required will depend on the quality of the pasture/forage, exercise intensity, dentition, metabolism and condition of the horse.
